Good morning,TibYou're pretty darn chilly down there.
you better believe it! and more to come
Not sure what we'll be headed into today as far as temps go, but I'm sure it won't be a heat wave. 
We're ready to hit the road in a few minutes, so will check in when I can!
Stay warm & cozy!

I'll add the chancellor/dean to that list. I wrote an editorial in my school newspaper in response to the condemnation the chancellor had for underage drinking/drinking and problems it had caused on and off campus. He spoke of high and mighty things that would be done. lol In my response, I laughed at him and told him he wasn't going to do anything. Yes, I made fun of him. Can you believe Pepper would do something like that?
I told him it was all about the $$ and that he wasn't going to do anything to jeopardize that. Yep, I was right.
morning. I think a road trip to the southern most part of florida may be required to save me from freezing.

Good morning y'all
we're in the deep freeze too. 23 degrees with an expected high of 37. blech.
Thanks Katya and Pepper, I'll add in the alcohol arguments. So sorry for your friend's loss Katya. We're a research campus with a large medical school, and a large proportion of the undergrads are commuters, so the proposed ban is less "save the children" then it is "save the adults from themselves" . grrrrr

Good morning snails.
@CES...some ramblings: I was thinking that there's a difference between science and education, and mandates. You can easily argue that all the PSA stuff is important...safe or no alcohol consumption, party-safety awareness, green-stuff is cancerous even if it becomes legal, etc. The messages DO get heard. They are only a % effective, but they have an impact.
Mandating, on the other hand, is the surest way to get people to rebel against it and vape on premises "for the principal of it". Feeding the "rebel nature" by banning something that is elsewhere legal is not wise.
They have no cause. No justification. They'd have to show harm from vaping. They can't..it's harm reduction. Various businesses use fire-insurance excuses for showing harm from smoking...even outside. But they can't do that with e-cigs.

I shoveled the steps and walkway yesterday. Can't even tell now. Drifting too.
Morning Tibs.
I have a foot of snow and drifting. I don't even want to hear any of that "it's cold" crap from you wimpy Southerners! I'd visit if I could though. lol. Like...make the circuit for 6 months.....
Catt would be happy. Maybe he is. Hard to tell since he doesn't show up.

a foot of snow? I'd be home for a week. we wimpy southerners don't go out in that kinda stuff.
I was just thinking about you, atty. I got to wondering if some "alien" snow got you. Apparently, it's still getting you.
good morning.
Apparently, it's still getting you.good morning.
The good thing about it is that it is very quiet.
All the people and their cars, even planes, are laying low. It's just softly snowing and quiet! Occasionally there's a snow plow or someone running snow-moving equipment (blower, thrower, plow on lawn tractor, whatever) but mostly not.

The insect-like ones are too busy with the anti-nicotine agenda to worry about snow.
